Drunk driver without a license stopped during check!

In the early hours of March 2, 2025, there were two risky car trips in Germany and Austria that could have terrible consequences. In Leonding, Austria, a road user alerted the police because a driver was noticed to be driving extremely unsafely. The 47-year-old from Linz was heavily intoxicated and traveling on the A7 Mühlkreis Autobahn towards Vienna without a valid driver's license. The police were finally able to stop him in front of the Bindermichl tunnel, where a positive alcohol test was carried out. The vehicle key was immediately seized and the driver was removed from the danger area 5min.at reported.

Rapid escape attempt in Germany

In Germany, the situation appeared no less dangerous: A 17-year-old driver in Wurmlingen evaded a police check at around 2:50 a.m. after the officers became aware of his parked car on Karlstrasse. As the police approached, the young driver suddenly accelerated and raced across the city at over 150 km/h and over the B14 towards Tuttlingen. He ignored all stop signals. To make matters worse, he only stopped after braking abruptly, where he was finally subjected to an inspection. How schwaebische.de reported, it turned out that he had used the car without authorization and did not have a valid driver's license. A distinct smell of alcohol surrounded him, which is why a blood sample was taken.
